Information processing apparatus, data management system, data management method, and non-transitory computer readable medium storing program

Abstract

Provided is an information processing apparatus that can store necessary data in a data storage unit while effectively preventing information processing resources from being consumed. A data acquisition unit acquires facility data. A data transmission unit transmits the facility data acquired by the data acquisition unit to a data storage unit of a server. A transmission frequency decision unit decides a frequency at which the data transmission unit transmits the facility data to the data storage unit. The transmission frequency decision unit decides the frequency at which the facility data is transmitted to the data storage unit in such a way that the frequency at which the facility data is transmitted when a degradation state of a facility is progressing becomes higher than the frequency at which the operation state data is transmitted when the degradation state of the facility is not progressing.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
 a processor configured to 
 acquire facility data indicating information related to a facility; 
 transmit the facility data acquired by the processor to a data storage unit that stores the facility data; and 
 decide a facility data frequency at which the processor transmits the facility data to the data storage unit in such a way that the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted when a degradation state of the facility is progressing becomes higher than the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted when the degradation state of the facility is not progressing, 
 wherein the facility data includes quality data used for determining quality of a workpiece processed by the facility and operation state data indicating an operation state of the facility, and 
 wherein the processor is further configured to decide an operation state data frequency at which the processor transmits the operation state data to the data storage unit. 
 
     
     
       2. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to increase the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted as a running time of the facility becomes longer, assuming that the degradation state of the facility is progressing. 
     
     
       3. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to calculate a reference value of the facility data and increase the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted as a difference between the reference value and a value related to the facility data becomes greater, assuming that the degradation state of the facility is progressing. 
     
     
       4. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein, when the facility is evaluated as abnormal when the value related to the facility data reaches a predetermined threshold, the processor is configured to increase the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted as the value related to the facility data becomes closer to the threshold, assuming that the degradation state of the facility is progressing. 
     
     
       5. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein all of the quality data is transmitted to the data storage unit. 
     
     
       6. A data management system comprising:
 a processor configured to acquire facility data indicating information related to a facility; and 
 a data storage unit configured to store the facility data, 
 wherein the processor is further configured to
 transmit the facility data acquired by the processor to the data storage unit; and 
 decide a facility data frequency at which the processor transmits the facility data to the data storage unit in such a way that the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted when a degradation state of the facility is progressing becomes higher than the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted when the degradation state of the facility is not progressing, 
 
 wherein the facility data includes quality data used for determining quality of a workpiece processed by the facility and operation state data indicating an operation state of the facility, and 
 wherein the processor is further configured to decide an operation state data frequency at which the processor transmits the operation state data to the data storage unit. 
 
     
     
       7. A data management method comprising:
 acquiring facility data indicating information related to a facility; 
 deciding a facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted to a data storage unit in such a way that the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted when a degradation state of the facility is progressing becomes higher than the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted to the data storage unit when the degradation state of the facility is not progressing; and 
 transmitting the facility data to the data storage unit at the decided first frequency, wherein 
 the facility data includes quality data used for determining quality of a workpiece processed by the facility and operation state data indicating an operation state of the facility, and 
 the method further comprises deciding an operation state frequency at which the operation state data is transmitted to the data storage unit. 
 
     
     
       8. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute:
 acquiring facility data indicating information related to a facility; 
 deciding a facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted to a data storage unit in such a way that the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted when a degradation state of the facility is progressing becomes higher than the facility data frequency at which the facility data is transmitted to the data storage unit when the degradation state of the facility is not progressing; and 
 performing control to transmit the facility data to the data storage unit at the decided first frequency, wherein 
 the facility data includes quality data used for determining quality of a workpiece processed by the facility and operation state data indicating an operation state of the facility, and 
 the program further causes the computer to execute deciding an operation state frequency at which the operation state data is transmitted to the data storage unit.
